Vancouver’s favourite outdoor Shakespeare experience, Bard on the Beach, will be back again this summer with a fully-packed performance schedule.

      The backdrop for the Bard on the Beach stage can’t be beat. I can’t wait for the season to start this year. It’s been a few years since I’ve gone, but not this year! Thanks for getting me stoked about it.

      I know about Bard-B-Q and went one year (Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead), but what are those other special events?

      Hi Michael,
      The other special events are a wine tasting and play event. This usually sells out so I would suggest purchasing tickets early. The Forum is an opportunity to look deeper into the world of Shakespeare with this educational programming. Operas & Arias is a night of music and opera on the Bard stage with members of the UBC Opera Ensemble.
      I hope that answers your question.
